5 bed village house, a former convent, with courtyard garden in the heart of this red brick village, opposite the church and market hall

Charming 15th-Century Village Home with Courtyard Garden

Located in the heart of Saint-Nicolas-de-la-Grave, this impressive five-bedroom home was once part of the village convent. Built with the region’s signature red brick, it sits directly in front of the church and the iconic market square. With arched entrances, an imposing front door, and a stunning staircase winding through the house, this property exudes history and character.

While the house could benefit from some updating, it remains completely habitable. The sitting room features a large wood-burning stove, and the kitchen was renovated just a few years ago. It could easily be opened up to create a seamless flow between the dining and living areas.
